Footgun: Underground published on Nintendo Switch

“Football is about 22 men who chase a ball for 90 minutes and in the end Germany wins,” says a popular saying. Of course, the love of Germans about sport has long been extended to video games. So it is no surprise that you have developed one of the wildest pictures for football so far: to merge it with Roguelike Dungeon crawlers like Hades.

Footgun: Underground is a Roguelike platform with pixel art -visuals, which combines elements of football and billiards with genre staples and creates a fascinating mix of familiar and unknown.

The popularity of football is partly based on its simplicity and accessibility, and the indie game has clearly taken these lessons to heart. In essence, it is very simple: you kick a ball, if not in a network. While the etiquette in football prescribes that players should not intentionally aim at their opponents, Footgun encourages it very much and motivates them to step as hard as possible in order to evaporate the enemies with overwhelming force.

In typical Rogueliker fashion, immerse yourself in a dungeon and followed with different room types with unique challenges and rewards such as devices, characteristics and brand new balls.

Apart from the football aspect, the game contains elements of the pool – rooms often offer neutral balls that can be used to create fatal chain reactions when they play things in a clever way. Various different biomes and randomly produced dungeons await what the repeatability secure.

Footgun: Underground received nominations at the German computer game prices and German developer prices and showed his great potential, although in the end he had not won none of the trophies.

The PC version of the game in 2024. Now a Nintendo Switch Port has been published that brings the title on a handheld device -and the Nintendo console is not the only one. Footgun: Underground at the same time received its steam deck check, which means that the tax scheme of the portable gaming PC is fully supported.
